Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
The randomization has been performed using the permuted block randomization table. The block randomization method is designed to randomize subjects into groups that result in equal sample sizes. This method is used to ensure a balance in sample size across groups over time. In our study, subjects will be randomized in 4 patient blocks. Randomization was centralized and computerized with a concealed randomization sequence carried out at https://www.sealedenvelope.com/.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Triple blinded
Blinding description
The drug and placebo will be in coded same packages; a designated person will provide the codes from permuted block randomization via phone. The same person will group the data at the end of the trial, and the expert will perform statistical analysis and after results, the pocket that is with the placebo provider would be opened, and the data will be decrypted. The data regarding harm and benefits of treatment will be provided to the patient and caregiver.
